Dunno if this video was posted before. Thought it was a pretty cool match and I should post it:ECDUB! EDDUB! ECDUB!
Man, now I feel like watching my Rise and Fall of ECW dvd.

So now the Bragging Rights thing is a seven-on-seven tag match. I'm pretty sure that's not what they said AT ALL last week.
One of two things must have happened; either a) Michael Cole's an idiot and we blame him for misinforming us on the theme, or b) WWE can't fully hash out their ideas even when the PPV it's themed at is TWO WEEKS away.
I'll say it's a little bit of a and a whole lotta b.
And please, if you're going to rip off Survivor Series, at least don't do it with the PPV that's right before it. It's redundant and annoying.
Speaking of redundant, it seems that Legacy AND Jeri-Show started their decent on RAW last night. When you've got two team ending stories, don't feature them on the same show. I like the stories, it just left a bad taste in my mouth to see them both do it at the same time.
Unless they're planning on the SS teams to be all former tag partners. If that's the case then my prediction (or rather what I'd hope to see) for SS is HBK, JoMo, Teddy, Big Show, and Rey vs. HHH, Miz, Cody, Jericho, and Batista.
Hey, it could happen. But probably not. :razz:

^ Well, one little good thing happened on Raw this week. They announced US Champ Miz vs IC Champ JoMo at Bragging Rights. Nice.
Actually, I have a fun dark match for Bragging Rights, I think the fans will find this amusing:
WORST WRESTLER TRIPLE THREAT
Great Khali (SD) vs Kozlov (ECW) vs Festus (Raw)
And since Khali's out... damn it.
Well, SS is coming. Since Bragging Rights is just a precursor PPV, I sincerely hope they won't screw this PPV badly.

He's still listed on the Raw roster... oh well. If Gewirtz can't come up with a storyline plan for Festus, it's a safe bet we'd be seeing him on the "Future Endeavours" list soon enough.
Yep, that's why it's a "WORST WRESTLER TRIPLE THREAT"... it's so bad and terrible that it's great to watch, just for lulz.

Team Smackdown is way to weak compared to Raw. Matt Hardy should have taken Escobar's place in the team. I really hate it when debuting wrestlers get thrown into big matches like that for no reason.

So when I read that Shane split from WWE I wondered why Shane? Why?!.....
Then I watched SmackDown last night. They put two, yeah TWO new guys on Team SmackDown. Drew McWhatever and that new guy who had his first match ever in the qualifier against Matt Hardy. And are they gonna make Matt the one the young guys beat to show their "skills" now? That would suck. He's better than that.
Oh, by the way, did you guys see Matt on Scare Tactics? It was pretty funny. He played a crazy guy who's girlfriend cheated on him with a close friend. Jee, that sounds strangely familiar. :razz: haha.
Also Morrison and Miz revived the Dirt Sheet. It wasn't really funny but it was still some awesome anger acting, especially on JoMo's part. Bravo.
And I fell asleep before Batista vs. Rey and I'm kinda pissed that I missed it 'cause Rey won. You know, this could be a good start to my Batista betrays Rey and Survivor Series is all former tag partners idea. Just saying. :lol:

Cmon, how am I supposed to take a match seriously when both of them are smiling and laughing? Boooo!
It's too bad you missed CM Punk's sneak attack on Mysterio. That was awesome.

On an update:
Nigel McGuinness ain't going to WWE... he signed with TNA recently due to WWE "dragging its feet" on signing him.
EDIT: Screw the previous statement. Nigel failed WWE's prescreening test procedure for health and wellness - basically WWE's blocking injury-prone guys. Danielson passed.
Hopefully Vince picks up the hint and send Bryan Danielson a contract now before DixiePlanet signs him up. God I'd like to see a Danielson vs Punk match, hopefully I'd see it on WWE.

They better get Danielson signed or I'm rioting. Besides the fact that he's one of the best wrestlers in the world right now, he's also young and healthy. He could be the next Chris Benoit if booked right.
Also, on other news, I managed to pick this stuff up:

So Cena lost his potential last match on RAW which to me says he'll win at BR. I figured if he won, then that's going out on top, and a loss would mar his final appearance and they wouldn't want that to happen.
I can see Orton losing because of DiBiase. Even though that would fuck up the idea that Cena and Orton's last match is epic if it comes down to third party activity, but I don't think it really matters.
And best moment of the evening, maybe the year was when Kofi spoke without a Jamaican accent and HHH called him out. I cracked up so hard.
On ECW Yoshi Tatsu's the new #1 Contender for the title. I don't think he'll win it but still, good for him. And Christian and Jericho had a good match. I wanna see Christian trade up to SmackDown already so he can get in some better rivalries.
By the way, Azuran, how's the Story Creator on SvR? It looks good but I have my doubts.

I downloaded a hilarious storyline about Chris Jericho calling everyone hypocrites and saying TNA sucks. Good stuff.
Also, you can also upload your highlight reels to youtube which is pretty awesome. Here's a crappy one I created to test out the function:
Good stuff.

Got the game myself today. Only got to fool around a little bit so far. Played a little of Edge's RtWM. I'm disappointed though, it's basically just what Edge did last year except with Maria as the GM instead of Porky Guerrero. Maybe it gets better down the line but I doubt it 'cause RtWM are pretty short stories.
And the Story Editor's kind of boring to me. It's fun making Randy Orton attack people with "Boom goes the dynamite" subtitles but I don't have the attention span it takes to play out an entire rivalry. I guess I just need to get used to it...
But on to SmackDown. I'm SOOOO glad that they re-vamped Team SmackDown. That was awesome. Now instead of the two rapist-looking rookies and those other guys we got people who've earned some real credit.
So now at BR, Team SmackDown is Jericho, Kane, Matt Hardy, Finlay, R-Truth, and the Hart Dynasty. I'm kind of questioning Team RAW now, though they'll probably still win.
While I'm making predictions, I'll say Miz beats JoMo, SD Divas beat RAW Divas, already made my prediction for Cena/Orton, and either Punk or Taker win the Fatal 4-Way. I'm leaning toward Punk getting the win. If Rey or Batista happen to win I'm assuming it'll be over each other. I'm still pulling for Batista going heel and rivalry-ing(?) with Rey.

No more Dolph Ziggler ruins the new team Smackdown for me. He's the only guy that should have stayed. They should get Truth or Finlay ff of that team, and put Ziggler back in.
Yeah, I didn't like the Edge story that much. I was expecting something more. Also, Kennedy being the main rival kill it a bit for me. Why couldn't they get someone better for that role?
The HBK story is pretty good and somewhat hilarious. That's been my favorite one so far.

HOLY SHIT.
John Cena wins. Again. God damnit, when I hoped he'd be booted off Raw. Now we'd endure another Orton-Cena feud, hopefully we'd see the last of it on either of WWE's 2 remaining PPVs for 2009. God I'd hate to see this rivalry again in 2010.
But the 60-minute match was pretty entertaining. They managed to keep their audience on their seats for the whole time, which was great. I was glued to it, fixated on what they'd do next. Now that's sports entertainment.
The Bragging Rights PPV results:
Dark Match: ECW Champion Christian def. Paul Burchill, non-title
United States Champion The Miz def. Intercontinental Champion John Morrison
SmackDown Divas def. Raw Divas
WWE Divas Champion Melina, Gail Kim & Kelly Kelly (RAW)
WWE Women's Champion Michelle McCool, Beth Phoenix & Natayla (SD)
World Heavyweight Champion The Undertaker def. CM Punk, Batista & Rey Mysterio (Fatal Four Way Match)
Team SmackDown def. Team Raw
HHH, Shawn Michaels, Big Show, Cody Rhodes, Jack Swagger, Kofi Kingston & Mark Henry (RAW)
Chris Jericho, Kane, R-Truth, Matt Hardy, Tyson Kidd, David Hard Smith & Finlay (SD)
John Cena def. WWE Champion Randy Orton (One Hour, Anything Goes WWE Iron Man Match) SCORE: 6-5
NOTES:
- I thought the Miz vs Morisson match was quite good but not that epic. Not much buildup either anyway, so a standard pinfall does it.
- Christian vs Paul Burchill... damnit ECW's relegated to a PPV dark match.
- The Divas match is the match where I went to the kitchen to make salsa for my tacos.
- Batista goes heel again, attacking Rey postmatch. The last time he was a real heel was back in 2004 when Evolution was in the height of fighting a then-face Orton. Now WWE has the hard task of selling Batista as a heel, when they had this 5-year merchandise slush for Batista, and not to mention his obligatory DVD.
- I'm interested as to how Big Show will be received this Monday Night on Raw. Slam Kingston, KO HHH. I won't wonder if this is another buildup on DX vs JeriShow.
- New hotness, as hot as your grandmother: Kingston vs Rhodes. Midcard alert is the word.
- Medics towel the blood off Cena's head. Aww... WWE's really selling the PG rating, eh? I mean, two years ago they'd let blood flow like an ocean, and now WWE's got towels as Maxipads for men.
- Apparently WWE's selling Orton as a wrestler with low endurance for submission maneuvers. He taps out quicker than a bitch on vibrators.
- I was correct on one of my predictions: the Iron Man match became another hardcore match, with some Legacy included. But I didn't think WWE'd go as far as messing with the pyro. Oh wait... they did that with Jeff Hardy once, didn't they?
- Aw... they had DiBiase there, helping Orton get a pin. Change of heart, Ted? WWE just wasted last week's RAW buildup of Ted's face turn.
